With respect to blocking, Croom and Thomas make O’Leary look like Rob Gronkowski. Watching Croom get absolutely undressed every Sunday is painful. One position group that could have been handled better this offseason.
Jeez...what I would do for a TE that was even an “average” blocker. Croom and Thomas are trash. I’m not even sure why Thomas is still on the team at this point. Bad mistake releasing O’Leary, IMO.
Frank Howard is the lifeblood of this offense, and he’s a pretty good defender....long in the zone. We’re a very talented team. I’d like to see more driving to the hoop by Howard and Brissett. Love the W!! Should get us close to the top 25.
Looking forward to this one. I’ve seen both teams play once, and they both looked promising. I give the slight edge to Michigan playing at home. Beilein has this team playing great defense and with great intensity. Should be fun.
